Clams casino yes, ham & cheese no. Why would I waste the fat, salt and calories on that? Unless you’re talking about some good imported Prosciutto and Provolone on some crusty bread. That would make a worthwhile sandwich.

there’s nothing wrong with eating shrimp in days without refrigeration. or, clams.

did the northwest native americans die out due to diseases of eataing claims?

no.

no you guys get clams and crabs and cook ’em up so that they never see the inside of a fridge? Yep. re you dead? Nope.

As for pigs, if they’re so disease ridden, um, how come early mankind you know, um, HAD PIGS? they were domesticated. They were eaten. Yes, you could get trichinosis if not fully cooked but my god, back then you could geta milion diseases inclding all kinds of food borne disease.

@9 and 14: “Firm” is a matter of some nuance. I like my shellfish “cooked” (no milkiness, etc.). The cheese should be slightly toasted (light brown) and most of the wine evaporated without overcooking. Fresh alder coals about 10 inches away are best.

BTW, vermouth is perfect for this and vodka martinis (made with Glacier potato vodka from Teton, Idaho and garnished with pickled green beans) are a perfect complement.

We have mostly Pacific oysters (not native). We relish Olympias when we can get them — they are truly tasty.

You know, Kristallnacht probably wasn’t such a big deal. A few bricks through windows thrown by some patriotic Germans worried about the Socialist influence of the Jews in their communities. Heck, you can’t believe the German MSM anyway–probably none of it really happened, and if it did is was probably because those Jews were fanning the flames of incitement with all of their complaints about armbands and confiscations.

Fed up with smug atheists claiming that the Bible is full of intolerance, hatred, and outlandish fables? Here’s the antidote.

The Bible was once regarded as the “Good Book.” But today it’s under relentless attack from liberals eager to justify their own political agendas. The Politically Incorrect Guide� to the Bible ….The Politically Incorrect Guide™ to the Bible, Robert J. Hutchinson sets the record straight.

The straight truth about Holy Writ:

In The Politically Incorrect Guide™ to the Bible, you’ll discover:

* How modern archaelogy supports the historical reliability of both Old and New Testaments

Including the creation of folks for Adan and Eve’s only surving son to to fuck!

* How the so-called “inconsistencies” in the four canonical Gospels testify to their authenticity

As opposed to the recounts that did not get incorporated?

* How the ethical codes of the Old Testament were unique for their time — and why that matters

I.e. if you leave out Buddha, the Greek philosophers, Confucius …

* How there were few voices in the ancient world that discerned any distinction between what was legal and what was moral or right — aside from the biblical prophets

I.e. if you leave out Buddha, the Greek philosophers, Confucius …

* How Biblical religion is not the enemy of science — but actually made modern science possible

Of course! God created rewality for scientists to find, believers refused to accept the plain truths.

Which is why the apostles were not executed by stoning as is required for blasphemy.

* Why you have to have a real ax to grind to think that the Old Testament takes a benign view of slavery

Grinding axes is an honest trade. Just ask Hagar and Joseph.

* How critics of the Bible often mistake descriptions of actual human conduct for God’s will

Ahso! Apparently God is both cruel and impotent? BTW .. who destroyed the first temple? Who chose crucifixion?

* How by far the greatest slaughters in human history have been inflicted by “rationalists” and “atheists” — often in the name of expunging Judaism or Christianity

WHAT .. who has tried to expunge Christianity?

As for atheists making war … what war was that? The war of the states? The Indian wars? WWI. WWII?,

* Refuted: the effort by liberal scholars to debunk those passages in the Bible that have traditionally been seen as unambiguous condemnation of homosexuality

What wonderful grammar! A double negative! I prefer, “the effort by liberal scholars to find those passages in the Bible that explicitly condemn of homosexuality”. Of course it is wrong too, but my version IS grammatical.

“the peerless Ann Coulter” writes … says Ann: “Not only do I write a weekly column for Human Events, I devour it from cover to cover. Why? Because it’s the one newspaper I can count on to bring me the absolute, unvarnished, hard-hitting truth. And so should you.” Here’s your chance to be included among the more than 150,000 intensely loyal conservatives who wouldn’t dream of going a week without reading the unrivaled revelations.
